Pip with virtualenv not upgrading Django

I'm using pip with virtualenv --no-site-packages --distribute and am trying to upgrade Django. pip install -U Django should upgrade it according to the docs I found. However, it simply finds the current Django installation and stops.

Ideally, I would like to be able to specify the version I want to upgrade to. Currently, I'm stuck with modifying the requirements file, then blowing over the old virtualenv and starting a new one. However, I'd be happy just getting pip install -U to upgrade to latest version.

Check your build/ directory in your virtualenv path. Delete the Django/ dir there and try to run pip install --upgrade django again.
